ABOUT
The works at Finsbury Park consist of the building of two lift shafts alongside opening up and extending the existing but disused passageway 4, constructing an extension beneath the railway lines to link the new ground level entrance to the west of the station, creating new stairs and lobby areas coming off the new and existing passageway 4 and linking these to existing underground northbound and southbound platforms, and finally constructing a new staircase and refurbishing an existing staircase which will connect passageway 4 to the existing passageway 3 to improve connectivity to the Network Rail area.
The result of the works undertaken have enabled step free access from both sides of the station, from the surrounding street level to the existing London Underground Victoria and Piccadilly line platform tunnels. With Finsbury Park being one of London’s oldest stations (opened in 1861) there has been no access for wheelchairs, prams or buggies. The redeveloped station will improve life for commuters and leisure travelers alike.
